This will be my FOURTH TIME contacting the city to report this issue. In front of my house, on the city easement, is a grand old hard maple that unfortunately died this past summer. I have reported this to Lee Hoff twice by phone, and this is my second ereport. I have had no response to my ereports and Lee did not put a priority on its removal. Today, in the storms, a large limb fell between my house and the neighbor's, in the parking pad where his car usually is. Fortunately, the car wasn't there, but I can tell that this will be the first of many limbs to follow and we can not assume to be so lucky the next time! As this tree is clearly dead, clearly a city tree, and clearly a hazard, I request that it's removal be expedited before more serious damage, or injury occurs. The address is 1115 W. 6th St. The sugar maple is the easternmost tree and clearly dead. Thank you.

Curtis [Gilstrap] (not sure about the last name) was so helpful when I visited Rose Hill Cemetery last Wednesday (31 July). I knew the section numbers, but not the plot numbers for several family members. He stopped to ask if he could help. He located the plot numbers for me, directed me to them, cleaned some mold off one of the stones, took a picture for me--I had my camera, but to get a proper picture I would have needed to get down on my hands and knees, no longer possible for me! I also learned a great deal about the cemetery and its inhabitants. I don't think I told him how well-kept the cemetery is. He really seemed to care about the cemetery and its visitors and inhabitants. Please thank him again for me. Sheryn Peters

Amy Shrake went 'above and beyond' in allowing a family friend to be 'late enrolled' into kids city. This went again protocol, but it prevented this young lady from being home, alone, for the week in which payment got messed up. THANK YOU AMY!

Thank you Mayor Kruzan! I know you are a 'good guy' as you have helped me with a problem before. Please do not allow a low-barrier homeless shelter. And do keep them out of the garages, etc. I truly believe they will return to where they came from without so many amenities in Bloomington.
